    Overall rating: 4.8 Wow what a cool place! I came here with a few new friends and I loved the whole vibe. Must get the chai martini. SO DELICIOUS. Alas, like all places in nyc drinks are about $20 so a tad too expensive for my taste. A great date spot, but hard to meet new people based on the two times I went. Two very odd notes is that when there was really good music, I swore there was a dj. But I think after 12 or 1, they started playing 70s/ 80s music and it turned into an odd karaoke style gen z singing bar. Totally took away the charm of the place for me. Doubt I'd go back at night again. Still recommend!

    Came here since we were close by jade and clover. Fun entrance to go into. But the music was so loud we could not hear ourselves think nor talk. The drinks were okay. Drank it and left. Headed to Jade and clover for their yummy drinks instead. Fun to come once and never come back.

    Super cute and cool speakeasy. It's super easy to miss, since you have to enter an empty art gallery first. It's on the ground floor, so don't make the mistake like we did and go down a flight of stairs to a different bar. We ordered the Fountain and Chai Noir. Both were delicious. The ambiance is super cute inside-- it's also cute in the bathroom.

    A cute speakeasy tugged away inside an art gallery that offers delicious cocktails. I asked for recommendations, and the drink I got - High Society hit the mark! The music and the atmosphere were chill and relaxing. A very nice vibe for all to enjoy!

    I'm super happy we stumbled upon this place! For context, I was celebrating a friends birthday next door at the potluck club and came for drinks right before. We had a great time and wanted to see if Fig 19 can spontaneously handle a small party of 10 later that night and they were able to squeeze us in with a corner table 9:15pm. Shout out to Nicole. My group stayed for a few hours and really enjoyed the DJ - the vibes, the drinks, the music and the dance was solid. Really good crowd and atmosphere too. From the cocktail menu, I recommend the Prince!

    Super cool concept. The bar is through a back door of a neat art gallery. The service was fine - we didn't say much to the staff outside of what drink we wanted (which is fine). The drinks were great. I ordered the Prince and it was a beautiful floral drink.

    A friend of mine booked a table for Fig 19, which made me super relieved as I walked in. Group of 6 that may have grown to 10 as friends of friends came in. At 9pm, it was fairly crowded. By the time I left at 11:30, there was a huge line outside. Objectively speaking, music was decent with some early 2000's throwback mixed with today's popular songs. It's played loudly and conversations are hard to have. For drinks, I got the Rhapsody on the and Polly Jean. The combined ingredients of both were not what I imagined but the alcohol does hit you after a while. A good experience, though not particularly my style.

    This place has been on my list for a while and we were at another bar in the area so we decided to check it out before heading to dinner. The entrance was at the back of a purple lit room - definitely would have walked right past it if I didn't know what we were looking for. I loved that the entrance was a bit hidden; it completes the whole speakeasy experience. We went around 7pm on a Sunday night and there was no line. We got seated immediately at the bar and the bartender was super attentive. Wasn't sure where to start for the drinks, but the bartender gave us a few recommendations and substituted it with the type of alcohol we prefer. We both enjoyed the drinks we had and overall, enjoyed the vibes here. Would definitely come back here again!

    This speakeasy was the last stop on our tour, and it did not disappoint. All the drinks looked terrific, but I took my chances with the Polly Jean, and I was positively elated. It was bubbly, refreshing, and beautifully decorated. The bathrooms were clean, the service staff was helpful and knowledgeable.

    Love the dark lighting

    Such a cute speakeasy hidden behind an art gallery! Came here for drinks after dinner and the ambiance was elegant but cozy. We were able to snag a table before the crowds of people came in around 8pm. Drinks were wonderful! This is definitely one of those places that makes New York New York.

    One of their cocktails!  @phidingthefam

    Hidden location, I walked around the block a few times trying to find the Art Gallery entrance. If you can find some neon lights, there's a decent chance you're walking into the right gallery and the Entrance for the Fig 19 is in the back corner. My friends were running late, and they were able to accommodate me being there while I waited for them... The whole time, I was vibing really well with the atmosphere, from the music to the staff. I even got 2 drinks in before my friends were able to make it in. All the drinks were delicious, not too strong but perfectly balanced. There isn't any food options here, so be prepared to grab dinner at another spot. Luckily, there's plenty of options surrounding Fig 19! @phidingthefam

    Ah, my long-time favorite speakeasy. Always had good luck here - was able to get a seat every time I dropped in. That said, really happy to see that they're accepting reservations now. I first had the Midnight in Paris, which had a sweet profile though didn't turn out to be too sweet as the chocolate bits were subtle. Then I tried the 19 Hundred, which was lit. If you enjoy drinks with strong spices, you'll enjoy this drink. Service was great! Just a bit sad to see that the gallery was completely empty; it used to have actual art. Not sure if this is a temporary situation post-Covid. Hopefully they'll bring back the gallery as well!

    Hidden behind an art gallery is the popular speakeasy @fig19nyc , with beautiful cocktails and the alcohol is a bit stronger than what I usually would get in other places. The setting was nice and cozy but there weren't that many seats so many had to stand and chat. The music was very loud so it had more of a bar vibe than an usual speakeasy, and people just kind of danced and jammed by the bar.

    Paradise Lost is a speakeasy tiki bar located on 2nd Ave in the East Village. A friend & I went…read morethere after having dinner at Spicy Moon a few blocks away. We wanted to have after-dinner cocktails in a chill space, so we searched on our phones & saw Paradise Lost address via Google. We proceeded to walk down & was unable to find the establishment due to their being no front sign. After walking back & forth a few times, we saw another group walking towards the door & they confirmed the place. We walked inside the front door pressed a "doorbell" & lo & behold we gained entry after the previous group went inside. Definitely an incognito entrance. Once inside that door there is someone to greet you, & take your information. There is a forest/ grass/ jungle-looking foyer/ hallway we walked down to get to the next door. Before we knew it, we were near the "Paradise Lost No Vacancy" neon sign w/ an arrow pointing towards the snake-shaped knob door. It gets opened & a supercool speakeasy awaits.... Paradise Lost has mixed style table / seating arrangements throughout the place. A bar seating section, booth-style seating area, lounge- style seating area, etc. We got there a little after 7pm, so the afterwork crowd was in full swing. Paradise Lost has interesting atmosphere. At times a Gothic / Medieval Vibe, meets place w/ shipwreck decor, meets eleganct /club vibe w/ beautiful ceiling lighting, etc. Music played in the background. Staff are friendly, energetic, & attentive. We were pleasantly overwhelmed w/ the vast selection of tiki cocktails that were on the menu. Paradise Lost also have an intimate selection of snacks/ food menu items. This included Popcorn, Tater Tots, Devilled Eggs Rangoon Dip, etc. We ordered some cocktails served in unique tiki mugs & a bucket of popcorn to munch on w/ our drinks. The popcorn is flavored w/ Sea Buckthorn & Browm Butter, which gave it an special flavor profile. Our cocktails were well-prepared & nice & strong. Paradise Lost has individual unisex bathroom stalls & a communal vanity & sink area. The bathroom stalls have spooky voices coming from a speaker as you use the bathroom. I was so humorously taken aback, it had me laughing when I came out...Definitely a different thing to experience in the bathroom - lol. Before we left we watched one of the bartenders do a cocktail "fire" presentation for some patrons in a booth seated area. Wow.... Paradise Lost accepts walk-ins only, no reservations. Paradise Lost accepts groups of 8 or less, unless you are requesting to book the space for a private event. Ages 21+ paradiselost.nyc @paradiselostnyc Paradise Lost is open everyday - 5pm-2am.

The drinks were very interesting and creative. The seawater martini I will say was a bit too strange for my taste but I still thought it was good. Service was very good as well. Would definitely recommend to visit if you like gothic stuff and tiki bars.

    Serious attitude here. The cocktails were very tasty but the service and vibe were so off-putting,…read moreI will never go back. I made a reservation in person more than 24 hours in advance. I wanted to treat an old friend to a quick birthday toast before a show she was attending nearby. Later that night, another friend became available to join but, because they do not actually have a phone that takes calls (only offers an announcement to go to Resy or email) adding another person was not at all easy. I would have had to cancel and rebook and wasn't sure I'd be able to (reservation was for a Saturday night) In most places, a table for 3 easily accommodates 4. But not here. When two of us arrived, they made it clear this was a big problem. I would have walked out right then but I would have been charged $90! We decided to stay and make the best of it, which was a challenge. For a speakeasy, the vibe was aggressive, not relaxing. Very loud music and not great acoustics.) Too cramped to be comfortable, proving that small does not necessarily mean cozy! We asked if we could take a chair from the table next to us, which was empty (it was only 6 pm; I told our server we'd be gone by 7 because my friend, the birthday girl, had to catch a show.) We were told No! To say the waiter was cold, unfriendly, and indifferent is generous. He was totally rude. He literally told my friend she couldn't sit in a chair that was otherwise empty, knowing we'd be leaving momentarily. Then he had the gail to hand me the bill with a 22% tip pre-selected...and watched over me while I signed it! Definitely the least satisfying $100 I have ever spent. Disappointing. It was good to see my friends, but I so wish I hadn't picked this place. Never again.

Dim lighting, plush seating, rich wood + wallpaper details, and that lounge-library vibe make the place feel like a secret hideout right in the middle of Midtown. It's moody, cozy, and effortlessly intimate -- perfect for a date night, a chill catch-up, or just a night out with good drinks. Nice service, too! However: be ready for the price tag. The cocktails are absolutely beautiful -- well crafted, creative, and flavorful -- but each one will remind you that you're not exactly paying dive-bar prices. It's worthwhile, but the "overpriced drinks" vibe absolutely hits. That said: the interior design and ambience are amazing. The mix of antique-meets-modern decor, low lighting, and comfy couches gives you that classic speakeasy romance. If you appreciate aesthetics and vibe over cheap drinks -- this is your spot. If you want a night out that feels deliberate and special rather than casual and cheap -- Osamil Upstairs delivers.
